GOING: H(9)

HAYMES PAINT Class 2 Handicap 1600m

Track: HEAVY 9   Rain (Max: 28)   Rail: +2m Entire.  

Keen exchange with Arduous likely to hold the lead off the inside draw with Family Of League and Let's Do It Again pressuring. LET'S DO IT AGAIN (1) resumed over 1400m at Gold Coast, beaten 2.25 lengths after being in contention on the bend. He has more up his sleeve and the step up to the mile suits. Placed here at his only second-up outing and finds easier with a 2kg claim. BUSKER (10) peaks and was back to his best when narrowly beaten over 1350m at Ipswich. He's raced well over this distance and is expected to feature. FIFTY CALIBRE (8) won his Maiden this track/trip heavily bet. Has a wide gate to manage but he will be fitter and won't have to improve much to make the finish. MORE FOR READY (4) went well twice at Doomben and then jumped $2.2F at Warwick over 1350m and found one better after a slow off. Tackles the mile for the first time and gives every indication it will suit. SUGGESTED PLAY: Let's Do It Again appeals most.
